Field Recording: Underwater Earthquake

Posted on 2009 11 07 by Jason Job

This is an epic underwater recording of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake that occurred at 00:58:53 UTC on December 26, 2004, with an epicentre off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. The quake itself is known by the scientific community as the Sumatra-Andaman earthquake.

I did not record this myself, I found it shortly after the quake on a scientific site about the earthquake. I recommend you listen to it LOUD. It is truly a humbling sound. Enjoy.
